Germaine Mitti (born about 1898), also seen as Germaine Mitty, was a French dancer who appeared with the Ziegfeld Follies and in vaudeville revues of the 1920s.

Early life

Germaine Mitti, who was born around 1898,[1] may have been of Basque origin.[2]

Career

Germaine Mitti and her partner Eugene Tillio[3] appeared with the Ziegfeld Follies of 1921.[4][5] Their act was considered one of the show's highlights by reviewers, one of whom noted that "Mitti is a slight little woman with a sympathetic face and manner, and a lithe body, as full of grace and energy as a young panther."[6] She was part of the elaborate tableaux of stage designer Ben Ali Haggin,[7] and wore a costume so minimal it was said to fit "in the palm of her hand."[8]

Later in 1921 Mitti was in the cast of the revue Fan of the Fayre in London,[9] and in 1923 she and Tillio were headlining at the Orpheum Theatre in Winnipeg.[10] They returned to the Ziegfeld Follies in 1924. In 1927, Mitti and Tillio were a specialty act in the revue Rufus LeMaire's Affairs.

Personal life

Mitti was described as an "ardent sportswoman" who enjoyed skating, swimming, tennis, boxing, and equestrian activities.[2] She married theatre composer and conductor Laurent Halet (1863-1932).
